Frequently Asked Questions About Colonics and our Services 
  • What Is A Colon Irrigation?
    A colon irrigation using the Wood Gravitational Method is an internal bath that helps cleanse the colon of poisons, gas and accumulated fecal mater. Unlike an enema, it does not involve the retention of water. There is no discomfort, no internal pressure, just a steady gentle flow in and out of the colon. At the same time, an abdominal massage is given to stimulate the colon to recover its natural shape, tone and peristaltic wave action.

  • How Is A Colonic Administered?
    A person receiving a colonic lies on a table 18" below the temperature controlled input tank. A sterilized speculum is gently inserted in the rectum. Water flow, which is always under the direct control of the practioner gently massages the abdomen to help the colon release its contents. It is possible to see this expelled waste matter when it passes through a special viewing window in the evacuation tube. The person is well covered and their modesty is given top priority during the procedure. The colonic process takes only 25-35 minutes.

  • How Many Colonics Do I Need?
    The number varies with the individual and his/her condition. Often the waste is so hard and well lodged in the colon that it may take a series of colonics to sufficiently soften and loosen this accumulated fecal material. Some people may not have startling results for the first few treatments. This is why a series of treatments is necessary and advisable. Colonic irrigation is most effective when employed in combination with exercise, proper diet of non-mucous producing foods, herbs and essential oils, massage and or chiropractic care. Fresh fruits, vegetables and certain herbs are suggested to help loosen and dissolve accumulated fecal matter. The suggested series would be the first 3 colonics, 1 week apart. Once you start the flow of toxic waste you don't want it to resettle and get comfortable again. After the first 3 then the colonics are spaced according to how you are feeling. Normally, we would space them 2 weeks, then 3 weeks, then 4 weeks. This will always be a joint decision. How are you feeling vs. what I am viewing. Once the colon is clean, which may take a few sessions, it is advisable to have a colonic every one to two months to maintain the environment. A good time is at the change of seasons when diet and exercise patterns change. You should have a colonic before, during and after a "fast" to hasten the removal of toxic waste and it would also be beneficial during the cold and flu season.

  • What Are The Benefits Of Colon Irrigation?
    Colonics offer relief from a variety of disturbances by cleansing the colon of impacted and putrefactive fecal matter. Fatigue, gas, headaches, irritability, skin problems, cold hands and feet, lethargy are among the problems people have found relieved by colon cleansing. Constipation, of course is another as well as chronic diarrhea. Your sense of well being is often dramatically improved with colon irrigations. You feel lighter, more energetic. The body can again assimilate food in the colon and better defend itself against disease. Natural peristalsis, tone and regularity are restored and many serious diseases may be averted through this gentle, sterile, scientific technique. Colonics are a key factor in the restoration of the body's natural balance of what we call good health.

  • Are There Any Side Effects To Colonics?
    There are none. It is not uncommon however, for some people to start to feel like they have a cold or headache after a colonic. Toxins which have been lying dormant in the colon are now being flushed out and a small amount may be reabsorbed into the body's system. This healing crisis passes quickly and the person will realize a feeling of well-being with further treatments.

  • Will Colonics Damage The Normal Intestinal Flora?
    NO. One of the functions of the first half of the colon is to gather the intestinal flora needed for the colon. When the acumulation of feces in the bowel leads to fecal encrustration, it is difficult for the colon to function normally and the glands in this lining cannot produce the necessary intestinal flora. The resulting lack of lubricaiton intensifies a state of constipation and generates toxemia. This upsets the normal acid-alkaline balance and the growth of the friendly bacteria is stunted.

  • Do You Use Disposable Equipment?
    NO, I have purchased the finest in surgical stainless steel instruments. These instruments are cleaned in a germicide then placed into sterile bags and autoclaved at the recommended temperatures and times. I have 24 view tubes which after use are sterilized and then air dried. I use a specialized tubing that allows me to "feel the actions" of your colon. This allows me a hands on approach to what is going on inside of you at all times. All the tubing is sterilized and air dried to proper specifications. After 22 years of administering colonic irrigations I have never had a reported infection from any client. Throw away tubing is stiff and accordion in fashion, this does not allow the hygienist to feel what her client is feeling and in my personal opinion puts the client in a tense none relaxable position.

  • Our Business
    We have been in business for over 20 years offering colon therapy, iridology and herbal consultations. Originally from Michigan, we moved here approx. 7 years ago and recreated our office in North Kansas City. Over the years we have worked with thousands of clients from all over the world! We have, for the most part, not advertised our services but have had a brisk referral business from satisfied clients. A satisfied client is the best advertisement that any business can have. We work very hard to maintain the level of professionalism, ethics and service that our clients expect and our growth reflects this set of standards.

  • Our Products
    The herbal formulas we use are professional grade. By that we mean that they are not available in health food stores nor to the general public. The two major companies that we do business with, Health Concerns and Seven Forests, have been in business for many years. Their formulas are based on not only Traditional Chinese Medicine but many have been used in double-blind studies in universities, teaching hospitals and have even been used in government studies. The ingredients in these formulas are the highest quality available, are free from impurities and are processed in facilities that exceed UN qualtiy standards. With the extensive research and on-going studies that these formulas have, we can be very specific on the programs we recommend. Since the herbal formulas are processed into uniform size tablets and potency, dosage levels are easy to maintain and taking them will be of little inconvenience to the client.

  • Herbal Basics
    With the vast array of formulas that we have available, our goal is to be very specific on the formulas used in our programs. Our goal is to recommend the very minumum number of formulas to achieve the maximum goal in the shortest period of time. This is not only cost effective for the client; it also makes it easy for the client to comply with the program. The nice thing about using herbal formulas is that they are not only specific for certain health issues, they all contain herbs that clean, circulate and rebuild. Since they are made with / from plants, they all contain vitamins and minerals. This is the bonus factor adding to your general health.

  • Safety
    None of the formulas that we use contain any herbs or substances that would be considered harmful or are prohibited by the FDA or any other government. If you take prescription medicines, we will take any counter indications into consideration and only recommend formulas that would be safe for you to take.
